Reactive Lab Training

February 22, 2023 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Reactive Lab, Murphy, enrolled in our E-Collar Training Program (UPX) to help with his confidence, socialization, anxiety, and obedience. He and his family have been working hard and they are experiencing amazing breakthroughs!

Reactive Lab

Here is what they had to say about a recent outing to the groomers:

“Thanks to Sara, and a lot of hard work, we had Murphy in for his monthly nail trim today!

He walked in and went right up to the groomer, climbed on the workstation, and was totally relaxed.

After he was done, he wandered around checking things out! He walked up to her sitting in the chair and put his head in her lap!

My big reactive snarling boy is finally getting the message! He had his muzzle on and his e-collar but I had left the remote in the car – wasn’t even a thought.

Thank you for helping us get to this point! Still ongoing but my boy is getting better!”

– Owner Pam

E-Collar Training A Reactive Dog

March 10, 2022 By Sara Bryanton Leave a Comment

E-Collar training a reactive dog is never an easy task to take on, however, Finnigan’s family was ready to commit.

We are so proud of this family and the amount of effort they put into training their dog. Their dedication was truly inspiring and completely changed their lives as well as Finnigan’s.

E-Collar Training a Reactive Dog

“The best thing I ever did was go to Unleashed Potential for training our Chocolate Lab, Finnigan.

I was against the e-collar for a long time until it was explained and demonstrated to me. This saved my dog’s life multiple times.

He would dart for the road when someone or something would go by and by using proper commands, along with the e-collar and rewards, we were able to keep him safe.

Our dog loved training and you could see the confidence grow in him along with myself as we learned together.

I think that the best thing you can do for your dog is get them into training so that they can live up to their full potential and you can enjoy your new addition to your family.

I have learned that dogs love to work and they are very happy when doing so!

Thank you Sara for helping me get Finnigan’s behavior to a better place and helping us have the confidence to tackle the fear aggression he had.

Forever grateful.”

– Owner Lisa

  • #8 How’s your energy been lately?
    How’s your energy been lately? Not your “I had a coffee this morning” energy. I mean your real, physical energy—the kind that fuels focus, patience, and how you show up for your dog and everyone around you. Your body doesn’t have energy. It creates it. That’s what this week’s episode of the Weekly Recall is […]
